I feel like TM2 has even more than TMNF

In terms of features as mediatracker, it clearly has more in my point of view.

In my end, Island help me to master speed, Canyon and Valley for control, Stadium for focus, and Storm battle sessions for accuracy; rockets for the win.

Eck, did not pay attention

I like the TM² environments best, but I wish they had Stunt and Platform built in. I play mostly offline and can't seem to play either of those title packs unless I'm connected. That for me is a big draw back from TMUF.
I'd like it if they could bring TMUF into the Maniplanet world (not necessarily change them like Stadium) so all the environments can be played from the one loaded gaming env.

Which changes sdo you mean exactly?
They have to reprogram each envi for the MP-engine, so it's not like copy and paste.

Yes, Stadium was partly reprogrammed for the MP environment but what I mean is it would be cool to launch one of the TMUF environments right out of MP. It could be done without reprogramming each of the environments. Click an environment or track, it loads the TMUF engine, environment, blocks, car and physics. With the speed of hard drives now days, the time it would take to change engines shouldn't be much more than loading different environments.
My point is, Maniplanet's purpose is to contain all the games in one place, right? So why not find a way to bring the classics in too? It shouldn't take an extreme amount of work. I've kind of stopped playing TMUF, but only because I have to choose one or the other and prefer TM².

sorry, but

Why?

Simply because technologies are evolving, TMF's engine is simply obsolete, and porting maniaplanet's engine backward would have many icompatibility problems, and be step backward in creative possibilities.
